About Protocol handler
Of the presenter app. The call will also attempt to start the presenter app using the custom protocol handler after a delay (to give the user time to install the presenter app). There are situations in which the presenter app may not be installed before the automatic attempt to the presenter app. In these instances, the users will need to manually click on the custom protocol handler link after installing the presenter app to start it. When clicked, the link should call screenleap.startAppUsingCustomProtocolHandler(). First-time users will be prompted to confirm that they want to launch the presenter app using the custom protocol handler. Implementation Notes Due to browser limitations, it is not possible to determine if a user has successfully installed the presenter app or given permission to use the custom protocol handler. As a result, you will need to provide your users with a manual way of a) downloading the presenter app and b) starting the presenter app using the custom protocol handler. Our testing on the Screenleap site has shown that the instructions with the retry links results in the best user experience and ensures that users don’t get stuck in a dead-end during the start process. The download link is necessary to address situations where the user has installed and subsequently deleted the presenter app. We place a cookie on the user's browser after the user has successfully installed the presenter app and started a share session. On subsequent share session attempts, we do not attempt to automatically download the presenter app. Without the download link, the user who deleted the presenter app without also deleting the browser cookie would be stuck at a dead-end. The custom protocol handler link can be necessary to allow the user to start the share session. If the presenter app is not installed before the automatic attempt to start the presenter app, the user will need to use the custom protocol handler link to manually start the share session after the app installation. The above issues only affect the initial installation of the presenter app. Once the user has installed the presenter app and granted permission to use the custom protocol handler, subsequent share sessions will start quickly and without requiring any additional user interaction.

The server provides mechanisms to send alert notifications to administrators when significant problems or events occur during processing, such as problems during server startup or shutdown. The PingDirectory provides several alert handler implementations, including:Error Log Alert HandlerSends administrative alerts to the configured server error logger(s).Exec Alert HandlerExecutes a specified command on the local system if an administrative alert matching the criteria for this alert handler is generated by the PingDirectory. Information about the administrative alert will be made available to the executed application as arguments provided by the command.Groovy Scripted Alert HandlerProvides alert handler implementations defined in a dynamically-loaded Groovy script that implements the ScriptedAlertHandler class defined in the Server SDK.JMX Alert HandlerSends administrative alerts to clients using the Java Management Extensions (JMX) protocol. Ping Identity uses JMX for monitoring entries and requires that the JMX connection handler be enabled.SMTP Alert HandlerSends administrative alerts to clients via email using the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The server requires that one or more SMTP servers be defined in the global configuration.SNMP Alert HandlerSends administrative alerts to clients using the Simple Network Monitoring Protocol (SNMP). The server must have an SNMP agent capable of communicating via SNMP 2c.SNMP Subagent Alert HandlerSends SNMP traps to a primary agent in response to administrative alerts generated within the server.Third Party Alert HandlerProvides alert handler implementations created in third-party code using the Server SDK.
